Every single module on this list will have some users. To me the
question is: Are there enough users to justify the extra burden on the
maintainers, but also users not using that package? (The latter will
have to download the package, have it installed on their systems, it
makes it harder to find other things in the documentation etc.) If there
not many users left, I believe these should either vendor the last
official package or to band together to maintain the package themselves
on pypi.
